Skateboard Frontside Nose Grind Foot Placement

Video Transcript

"The foot placement that you'll need for the frontside nosegrind is very similar to any other grind, except you are going to have to remember, you're going to be putting all your weight on the front of the board. So you're going to compensate for that by setting up with your feet a little far, a little more forward than you usually do. So, when I set up on my board, I'm going to set up with my feet just before the front trucks. This is in anticipation of eventually having my foot reach just the nose. The back foot after ollie-ing, is going to usually end up somewhere about the middle to the back of the board, just in front of the back trucks. So picture setting up for the frontside nosegrind like this and shifting your weight to the front, doing your nosegrind and popping out. So here, I'll show you an example of how you would shift your weight and test how to learn how to frontside nosegrind. If you do that you'll get more experience in learning how to ollie and land in a frontside position. Your foot placement is usually to be slightly adjusted due to the height of the ledge, but every time that you do a nosegrind, you're going to want to shift your weight to the front, nosegrind and then pop out.
